    Funniest Comedian

    Who is the best Stand Up Comedian you have ever seen? I'd say Dave Chappelle, Eddie Murphy (His 80's stuff is great), and probably Richard Pryor. I haven't seen too much of Richard Pryor, but what I did see was great.

    I'm a comedy buff so i've seen all those guys. I'd have to say that at his peak eddie was the funniest. I'd put delirious up against any other stand up special. It's all a matter of personal taste imo. I know people who worship pryor but i don't find him that funny at all, he was more dirty. Eddie was a dirty MF as well but it was just so funny you had to laugh.

    Beware the beast, man, for he is the Devil's pawn. Alone among God's primates, he kills for sport or lust or greed. Yea, he will murder his brother to possess his brother's land. Let him not breed in great numbers, for he will make a desert of his home and yours. Shun him, drive him back into his jungle lair, for he is the harbinger of death.

    Dave chappelle was hilarious as well, but didn't do it for a long enough period of time. Plus he never had that one standout standup performance.

    I absolutely love Richard Pryor's stand-up. In fact, I was talking about it at work today.

    Eddie Murphy's real old stuff is pure gold.

    Dave Chappelle is hillarious.

    Dimitri Martin has got some pretty funny material, but he's probably one of the only white comedians that really makes me laugh hard.

    EDIT: Ah, how could I forget Sam Kinison!

    Well I really liked Bill Cosby from late 80s early 90s ...his best performance was at Carnegie Hall and he was talking about being a working class person and basically you wait all week long for Friday which is generally payday and then what do you do? You're so tired from your week of work that you go to the bar for happy hour and you get **** faced and next thing you know you're on your knees in front of the seat filled with water and begging God to make it stop but hey who knew your body held so many fluids? Finally the weekend is over and you're still hungover on Monday morning but eventually you start to look forward to Friday so you can get paid and of course we all know what comes next...

    But as funny as everyday humor is I love political humor and no ones better at that than Lewis Black... he's friggin awesome! And Eddie Izzard is a close second.

    I miss the Canadien Air Farce show... it was great
    You smell that? That's the smell of spring, and I love it. You know what I love to do in spring? I love to come out into the woods, to walk amongst the budding trees, to smell and taste the hint of renewal that hovers in the air like a heady perfume, and to listen to the song of the birds who have returned from their long sojourn south. And bury the people I killed during the winter...

    I can't believe nobody mentioned Robin Williams? But, I love all the rest mentioned!
    Darth, ya, Bill Cosby and the dentist is classic stuff!
    If ya get the chance get that vhs or dvd of him "Bill Cosby Himself" I promise you will laugh. Oh, and "Bill Cosby at 49" is good too!
    There are some other comedians I love but, just can't bring them to mind right now!

    I find that robin williams is an aquired taste. I didn't like him at first. He had to grow on me. He's good in small doses imo.
